SubD examples and models

I don't know if it's in the pipeline but I guess that having the SUbD not visible when working and only visible during rendertime would be an equally useful feature. A kind of general SUbD toggle on/off in the SUbD preferences. The thing is, there is always an SUbD object on which I forget to apply the subdivision before pushing on the render button (lazy me), and having a "all subd on when rendering" toggle button would save my ass for sure

I'm in contact with some render engines in exploring way to allow them to render subdivided mesh independent from what is visible in the SU viewport.

Hi, Just uploaded a few objects modeled with basically Vertex Tools, and SubD:

Thanks for the planet, man (if everybody could share their files in proxy mode (1,5 to 9,5Mb in my example), we'd save a lot of energy!

You well deserve the cookies you get! My hero!

Now that'd be quite something.

I really do love the simplicity of modelling with the combination of QFT, VT and SubD.

Thanks for sharing that model. This will be useful to experiment with how OpenSubdiv handle UVs.

The hardest thing about having a shoe like this is lacing it especially when youre in a hurry....Im taking my time.. yet making this in 3d is proving to be more difficult than i ever suspected.

lace my shoe?

im happy anyways with how the shoe is taking shape..

Tried 3 methods.. but i couldnt even show it...So how do i lace this shoe?... proxy attached in case..

I thought this was happening only with this model, but it seems it happens with all. I don't remember doing any changes later. This is a bit strange. Maybe Thomas has some hints from the error I sent his way.

Edit

Thomas, have you released any updates recently ?
When I went to Welcomne to SubD panel it said a new version is available. Then I went to SCF pluginstore and installed SubD. Now it seems to work.

You where running an expired beta build. Guess you didn't update after the release.

When I went to the Welcome to SubD panel it said a new version is available. Then I went to the SCF pluginstore and installed SubD. Now it seems to work.
